"Malfoy, aren't you taking a leave of absence? Professor McGonagall told us after the last dinner, you...... How's the house? ”

Hermione was the first to speak, and although she didn't deal with Malfoy, she was at least more generous than Harry and Ron. For those-for-tat confrontations in the past, in hindsight, it was as childish as children playing with each other.

Under her guidance, Harry and Ron were also secretly relieved. It's not that they don't understand the current situation of the Malfoy family, although they obviously don't know much, but they don't know anything about it. Most of the gryffindor house cubs have this character, and when facing the weak, they often unconsciously show pity.

Oh, yes! This Draco Malfoy is actually the weak side now, which inevitably makes Harry and the others sigh secretly.

"Are you sympathetic to me?" Malfoy's heart felt as if he had been pricked by a needle when Hermione came up and mentioned the situation in his family, and after hesitating for a moment, he turned his face away with a faint anger, "I don't need your sympathy, I don't have to ask me about this stupidity in the future...... This kind of problem. ”

His blonde hair was still neatly combed as usual, and his wizard's robes were not half wrinkled. This strict habit of life, which had been cultivated since childhood, was as proud as his pure-blood family, and never left him.

But the so-called situation is stronger than people, and the downward trend of the family has brought a great impact on him, and even his usual arrogant words are gradually beginning to fade. The "stupidity" that he couldn't fully say seemed to be a small microcosm of his current life, silently complaining about the heavy burden brought to him by the terrible changes.

"Hermione, but ...... Well, I kind of care about you, right? ”

Harry was Malfoy's old rival, and he couldn't hear the insulting word that was almost blurted out. But the other party only said half of the words and took it back in time, which really made him not know whether to be angry or not.

"It's okay—" Hermione stopped Harry, signaling that he didn't need to argue with Malfoy again at this time, "okay, I can apologize—we won't ask again." I'm just wondering, what are you coming to us for? ”

"I'd like to see somebody, but I don't know where to find them," Malfoy said after a moment's silence, "and then I thought about it, and thought you must know, so I rushed over at once." ”

"You don't know, but we know?" Hermione wondered, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Dumbledore has created an organization in the past to fight ...... Voldemort. Malfoy paused again before saying the name that had been tabooed by wizards for many years, "Members of that Order were active here before, until Voldemort's recent defeat...... I think you should understand, now I need to meet them...... Yes, right now. ”

"You want to meet a member of the Order of the Phoenix?" Ron said with a strange expression, "See what they do?" Apologize to them? Or do you want to repent of the bad things you sat down in the past? ”

"What bad things have I done? I've had Crabbe and Goyle beat you up a few times, but is that a bad thing? ”

When Malfoy heard this, he immediately pushed him back. Obviously, although he has restrained a lot, he still can't bear it when he is subconsciously sarcastic by Ron. The blonde Malfoys and the red-haired Weasleys are also feuding, one is proud of pure-bloods, and the other is pure-blooded shame, and these two families are probably unlikely to live together peacefully in this life.

"Hey! Malfoy, you-"

Ron was obviously provoked by Malfoy's anger, and immediately gritted his teeth for a while, eager to pounce on him and punch him twice.

"That's it!" Hermione waved her hand again and frowned, "Malfoy, we kind of understand what you want to do, but why are you meeting them?" I don't think we'll be able to reveal their identities without explaining. ”

Malfoy returned his eyes to Hermione's face, no longer looking at Ron's defiant pose. But he seemed very hesitant, and after a while he shook his head.

"I don't want to say too much about the reason," he said slowly, taking a deep breath, "I can only assure you that I won't do what I shouldn't do, and it doesn't make sense." When I came to them this time, I just wanted to ask them a few questions and confirm one more thing with them by the way. ”

"Then we're probably not going to have to talk about it," Hermione shook her head decisively, "and a lot of them don't have the convenience of revealing their identities, which is one of the reasons why they always insist on keeping it a secret." In fact, I don't need to say much about this, I believe you can understand the truth. ”

"Really?" Malfoy's face remained unchanged, but he closed his eyes slightly and thought for a moment, then immediately nodded, "I know, so be it......"

After all, he actually wanted to leave directly even if Huo Ran turned around and took a steady step.

"Hmm...... Wait," Hermione didn't know what was going on as she suddenly stopped the other party, "It stands to reason that it shouldn't be up to us to decide whether they want to see you or not. I'll send a letter now, and if you still have time, wait here...... Whether they will see you or not, it's up to them to decide, how about it? ”

"Hermione?"

When Harry heard this, he immediately cast an inquiring look at her, and Ron followed suit.

They didn't understand why Hermione had suddenly changed her mind again. Writing a letter is not a big deal, but ...... Is it really necessary for Malfoy to bother with it?

"Just ask for him, it's not a big deal, isn't it?" Hermione turned her head and quickly explained, "The Malfoys have always been arrogant, but now they are certainly not arrogant. And for the Malfoy family, who are now in a trough, perhaps Lupin will find some special value. ”

"What the hell can it be worth?" Ron muttered quietly.

Hermione glanced at him, then shook her head slightly.

"Didn't Maca also choose Ramalfoy's father? Perhaps this will be beneficial to the Order of the Phoenix to a certain extent. Seeing that Malfoy was turning around, she lowered her voice further, "We're probably the same - what's the harm in just asking him?" ”

"It's up to you."

Harry shrugged, but stood up, not wanting to look at Malfoy's face again.

He did this, although he also hated Malfoy in his heart, but more often than not, he was uncomfortable. It was actually a very strange feeling, as if he wanted to see the Slytherin snake who sneered at the slightest disagreement, and it made him wonder if he was the so-called "masochist".

"I'll wait here, you go and write—"

As they spoke, Malfoy returned to Hermione, who immediately stopped talking.

"You...... You can come in and sit down for a while, I don't think anyone will come out and make things difficult for you right now. ”

Hermione looked left and right, and saw that the hallway was rightfully drowsy, and there was no place to sit. As a girl who thought she had a big heart, she thought it would be better to let Malfoy sit and wait in the common room, lest it be perceived that they Gryffindor didn't know how to be hospitable.

"No need," Malfoy urged dryly, rejecting her offer without appreciation, "go quickly!" Leave me alone......"

Hermione looked at each other with Harry and Ron for a few moments, then nodded slightly, then turned back to the doorway behind the portrait of the fat lady.

"You still want to invite him in and sit down? What did you do with him? Friend or guest? Ron looked a little angry, and said with a dissatisfied face, "If he wants to stand in the corridor, let him stand!" ”

"Don't talk this nonsense," Hermione waved her hand nonchalantly, walked quickly to the round table where she had been reading, and pulled out a small piece of parchment from her large bag, "Hmm...... You say, "Do you want to send a letter to Maca as well?" ”

"Then we'll have to borrow another barn owl," Harry said, suddenly glancing at the magic clock on the wall, and reminding him suddenly, "It will be lights-out time in a few moments, and the West Tower isn't close to here, is it too late?" ”

"There shouldn't be any problem," Hermione said after a moment's thought, "I don't need to rush that letter to Maca, I can write it slowly in a while, I just have something I want to talk to Marka, I can tell him along this time......"

As she spoke, she picked up a quill pen and dipped it in ink, and began to write.

Hermione's handwriting was not bad, not ornate and elegant, at least neat and clear. Coupled with the fact that her mind has always been quick-witted, the letter to Lupin was written not long after.

"That's it!" Hermione folded the parchment and stuffed it into the envelope, then picked up her wand and glued it with a touch on the seal, "Let's go!" Borrow your Hedwig and use it—"

"What's a 'use', my Hedwig is not an object!" Harry took the envelope and followed Hermione and Ron out into the hallway again.

They hurried back and forth, which made the other lion cubs in the common room very curious. But curiosity is curiosity, and they weren't interested in getting up and finding out about Malfoy's obnoxious fellow.

"Let's go! Malfoy, you can follow us to the owl shack," Hermione beckoned him, "or can you continue to wait here?" ”

"I'll go too." Malfoy said without hesitation.
